The newest addition to Rimmels liquid foundation range. Rimmel claims this is a medium coverage foundation that feels hydrating and moisturising. Light weight formula blends instantly into the skin creating a nude, poreless effect. Sweat, heat, humidity and transfer proof for up to 25 hours.
This comes in a 30ml glass bottle with a pump and is available in eight shades.
I purchased both 100 Ivory and 400 Natural Beige as Boots currently have any two Rimmel products for €12. This usually retails at €8.99. The consistency of this is perfect as it is not too thick.
Rimmels description of this foundation is spot on! I was looking for an everyday foundation with medium coverage as unfortunately I don't have good skin at all. I have oily/combination skin that gets very dry at times with large pores and a lot of redness.
I started by applying Cliniques dramatically different moisturising gel for oily/combination skin. Blemishes and redness are visible.
After one application (Three pumps) of foundation blemishes and redness are barely noticeable. Skin looks fresh and dewy. I applied using Real techniques stipple brush.100 Ivory is pink toned and quite similar to Macs studio fix fluid in NC20.
I applied Macs blot powder in medium with my Real techniques buffing brush to get rid of any shine.
I have to say I like this a lot more than I thought I would. The coverage is fantastic, pores and redness disappeared, it feels light weight and applies very easily. The only problem is that I find this foundation oxidises quite quickly. Because of this I think I'll use it for summer when slightly tanned.
I would give this a 4 out of 5, losing out on one mark due to the oxidisation.
